Prevent dropped objects with Toe Board protective barrier

The CableSafe® toe board is a low protective barrier. The Toeboard or Kickplate protects openings on platforms when there is a risk of dropped objects and tools from height. The safety toeboard is easy to install with nuts and bolts. Installation is done without the need of hot work permits. The toe boards can protect any size opening, the more units to larger the opening. At any time the units can be increased. The boards or kickplates are 4 x times faster to install over conventional steel toebards without hot work permit. The toe board warns for openings on the platform by its bright yellow color:

Easy installation

Neatly enclose field cut penetrations

Great for rework

Faster than welded banding

Easier than using resin on oversized pipe

Uniform, finished appearance
